of the B. & O. express, on behalf Of his organi-
zation, but when the contract was submitted to
the executive committee of the c., a. q D. Rail-
road Company they declined to ratify it with
Mr. Tregos signature, and demanded that it be
signed by Robert Garrett. president Of the
Baltimore q Ohio railroad. hence the delay and
postponement to March l. Whether Mr.. Garrett
has signed the contract or not is not as yet
known The signature of general superintend-
emit or superintendent Of either Of the old ex-
press companies has always been accepted by all
railroad companies to their contracts without
question, and this action on the part of the e.,
ID. q u managers is exciting good deal of
criticism. especially among railroad men who do
not believe in railroad COMPANIES doing express
business when companies of wealth and high
standing are organized to do the business. and
when the increase in the number of express
companies is increasing the charges for express
service, more especially where express matter is
transferred and carried by two three COM
panies.

items Among them was an item Of nearly g.

cihc railroads in 1885, against about $500. 600
in 1886. Another item WAS for reimbursement
Of importers, 81, 900 less in 1886 than in 1885,
and another was for drawbacks. which, in

to the reduction of 100000 in the War De-
partment, $6, AGO, 600 represented the river and
harbor work in 1885 more than that IN 1886.
Was that fairly to be charged to Republican ex-
travagance2 The rest of the saving was made up
of different items which did not depend at all on
the current administration OF the War Depart
ment such as refunding to States and Terri
tories under the act of July "a. 1882 As to the
reduction of expenditures In the Navy Depart
ment, 81, 200, 900 represented what was spent in
the construction of vessels in 1885 more than in
1886. It was not true. therefore, that the pres
ent administration was any more economical
than the former administrations; and it was not
true that the Senate had, in former years, ap-
propriated moro than was necessary for the or
binary expenses of the government-at least
was not more res ponsible for it than the House
Of Representatives was.
Mr.. Hawey expressed his very great dlsap-
pointment that the superintendent of the Coast
Survey, for the very first time in its history,
was not a gentleman of high scientific attain
ments: in fact, not scientist at all That
was most extraordinary departure from the
uniform practice It was a great administrative
mistake. and he hoped it would not be con-
tinued.

was resumed.

Faoilities for RAN Production.

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-The Chicago Journal of
Commerce will, on Wednesday of this week,
publish reports from every Bessemer steel plant
in the United States, showing that America has
a capacity of fully $4,000 tons of steel rails
for 1887. The Journal has computed the follow
ing table as the result of its inquiries: Spring
field Iron Company, l20 600 tons; Indianapolis
Rolling-mill Company, $4,000; Joliet Steel
Company, 200 900; Laekawanna Coal and Iron
Company, 2l6OOO Troy Steel and Iron Com
pany. 100 000 Montour Iron and Steel Company,
$4,000; California Mills, $4,000; Lochel Iron and
Steel Works. $4,000; Cleveland Rolling mill
Company 100000; Road Iron Company,
10000; Union steel works, Chicago. 168, 600; Col
orado Coal 81 Iron Company, 125, 900; Cambria
iron works, 100000; Western Steel Company
1872 600; South Chicago plant, $50, 000 Bay View
plant. 50000 North Chicago plant 200, 900; Car
neeie. Phipps & Co., 125, 900; Union iron mills
Pittsburg, 200; Edgar Thomson plant $50 600;
Scranton Steel Company. 175. 900; Pennsylvania
Steel Company, 800. 600; Bethlehem Iron Com
pany. 250. 900; Worcester steel works, $4,000
total apparent rail capacity of 3,671 900 tons.
The paper says: I'VE do not pretend that this
is absolutely correct, nor that there will be
no accidents or Interruptions to inter-
careful estimates and statements furnished
us the rail mills have already contracted for an
amount much nearer to two million tons than to
what has been generally reported. Evidently
there is no immediate necessity for importing
steel rails, but as the rail capacity is beyond
that of the converters, the imports of blooms
may amount to half a million tons during the
year, should the price warrant just now they
are relatively much higher than rails"

Seems To BE q Puzzier.

The meaning of the interstate-commerce bill
on many of the most important evils it seeks to
remedy seems to be puzzle to the best
posted railroad men and the most eminent law
yers. The New York Evening Post says: IF
four profound railroad lawyers, when nothing is
at stake construe the terms of thefbill so as to
arrive at dramatically opposed conclusions,
dollars may depend upon the issuea Putting
aside altogether its merits and dement's from an
economic point of view, the measure might be
properly vetoed protest against SO barbarous
a use of language Should the bill become a
law, We might even be subjected to the humilia-
ton of witnessing the august Supreme Court
tossing up a coin to decide whichof two or three,
or more obvious and logical constructions should
be put upon the phraseology of certain mysteri-
Gus clauses. 1t is necessary that tho railroad
traffic of vast country should be~regulated
by wise statutes but the very necessity makes
it imperative that such statutes should not be
capable of varying constructions"

A Trunk Line Scheme.

prominent railroad official of Chicago, in
conversation with a reporter of the Inter Ocean,
who has watched closely the progress of the in
terstate-commerce bill, remarked that it ap
peared to him, from what he had seen and heard,
that number of prominent railway companies
were responsible for the introduction of the in
terstate-commerce bill in Congress. He said
that in his opinion the great trunk liEes of the
East had practically pushed the bill on to its
adoption In Congress, and had never been known
to express an opinion against it. These great
trunk lines were the ones to profit by the adop-
ton OF the bill. For instance, the Vanderbilt
system would profit greatly. Il had the New
York Central the Lake Shore. the Michigan
Central, the Boston & Albany, the Decline and
the Northwestern roads in it's circuit, and en-
ployed about one hundred thousand men. The
Lake Shore, for instance, employed twalve thou
sand men, of whom only comparatively few were
authorized to make rates and change the tariffs.
Mistakes were often made by these rate-makers,
sometimes purposely and sometimes inviting
ly. But as soon as it became crime and pun
ishable by law to violate the terms of an agree
ment, or to cut the rates, soon would all rate
making cease, and all illeeitimate competition
would be at an end This would save the rail-
roads vast amount of money annually.
